Just keep in mind that some of us have replaced our motor mounts
(mine were utterly trashed) and it made no difference. In about
a month or two, the shuddering came back. I replaced motor mounts,
clutch plate, pressure plate, throw-out bearing, pilot bearing.
The remaining possibilities are the transmission mount, which I
had out and concluded was ok (but could have been wrong I suppose),
and re-surfacing the flywheel. I seem to recall mail from someone
last time this subject came up who said they re-surfaced the flywheel
and the problem still came back.
Right now I know of no (long term) solution nor does it sound like
anyone really knows what the problem is.
